How to Run C and C++ Programs on VS code?

[@luisvillanueva807]

Hi man , really good video but I have a doubt, i run succesfully my code at VS but output section is for read only, how can I do when I need to input some data. I mean through terminal

[@MrAboutTech]

Watch my video on that kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZqbo4Frf5dnb68

[@vishnu.c4652]

use the terminal

[@williammatiz9745]

Open VS code. Go to files, preferences, settings. Go to User, scroll all the way till you see run code configuration. Click that and scroll a lot till you see "Run In Terminal". Check box that, then do control+s right after :) Warning: If it gives you a User warning settings, check to see if you're using a color pallet theme extension that does not support C++. If so, uninstall and look for C++ color themes as an alternative. Hope it helps :)

[@MrAboutTech]

What is the error that you are getting?

[@sivabalanj]

have a easy solution....to run and debug.... step 1: installing MinGW 3:35 step 2: you must install "code runner"(.run) and "c/c++ by microsoft" extension in the visual studio code. step 3: file>settings and in the text field search for these two " Run In Terminal " & " Save file before run (optional but recommended)" and check them both step 4: you r good to code...you can even set breakpoints (that red dot) and debug the program and even view the change in variables using "watch" Enjoy

But it doesnt work when you need to have user input. as it wont allow the user to input a string or other data from terminal because the compiler will always default to the output tab and not the terminal. Also you are using code runner and not typing out the actual command to compile the code.
